We now support 10 libraries utilized by over 700 children per day. Families and schools in then United States also sponsor street children.

Youth for Christ USA

“The Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”—Mark 10:45 At Youth for Christ, we wholeheartedly embrace the “and” of Mark 10:45. Jesus came to serve and to deliver the message of transformation. He came to embrace and to liberate. We look to Him as we carry out that “and” — the call to act, with an eternal perspective. At Youth for Christ, our passion is to minister in the name of Jesus. We choose to walk the very same bridge He used; the “and” bridge combining Christian service with Christ’s sacrifice. We are liberated by His forgiveness and propelled by His love, to continually declare mercy and truth. We are ministers of His grace, on campuses and in juvenile halls… in wide open spaces and on congested street corners… to the outcasts, the transparent, the terrified.
